okay, can you tell me if i have the correct answer?

hero · Answer

Label the angles to help you find the corresponding ratios for each similar triangle.

anonymous · Answer

Can you take me through the steps? @Hero

anonymous · Answer

They only have the measures for the sides in this problem not the angles

hero · Answer

You can use variables for the angles. Since each triangle is a right triangle, one of the angles is 90, the other two will be x or y and x + y = 90 so you know that much. Nevertheless, the way @freckles suggested is probably easiest for you.
